The Last Word (Destiny)

The first exotic gun I got was The Last Word... I got it from a Legendary engram from the strike playlist, which was my go to activity in the first month.

It was funny because I was super disappointed at first. I wanted Suros real bad, you know, since it was the era of the Auto Rifle. And I had a friend online who only wanted TLW (and Thorn) in the beginning... We were in party chat when it happened. I felt so bad, because I didn't care, but it was what he wanted most. It was one of our first real encounters with the cruelty of RNGesus. My friend never got one until Xur sold it.

Funny thing is, I held on to it, never really used it for the first several months, but in the last few months, it has become my go to PVP gun. It actually is pretty cool when I think about the story of that gun for my Guardian. It was even at 300 Attack until post HoW, I upgraded it just for ToO.

My first exotic armor (which came just before TLW) was a Skull of Dire Ahamkara. It fell during my first nightfall and I was PUMPED. Will never forget that first exotic moment. I deleted the helmet though (later on)... I needed an exotic shard, and never used the helmet. The perk isn't that great and the roll was real bad.
